We never scored off corners. Might as well just give them a goal kick instead. I miss the front post flick on with Billy Hamilton scoring with a bullet header

If all their efforts are going into the Super Box then they are failing miserably. Had the displeasure of experiencing it on Saturday and it was a massive let down despite the ticket price of £600 (no, I didn't pay for it and I don't think that can be the actual price of a ticket in there).
